There are now used by - gasp - corporations for secure data storage. I can say no more than that! Oli Wigs and I developed the Isle of Wight as a Shadowrun setting for 3e, based on the supposition that the UK was forced to sell it to raise cash (somehow apocryphal in its own way). The corps then divided it up into 'sectors' a la Berlin in the Cold War. It was a tax-free, extra-territorial jurisidiction for them, a bit like Hong Kong.Stuarthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01863160473105489597noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-232794383425434281.post-74258921430412046662011-02-08T12:07:21.182+00:002011-02-08T12:07:21.182+00:00Who knows indeed - it's good you have somethin...Who knows indeed - it's good you have something of this quality up your sleeve!Porkyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00604351052444947490noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-232794383425434281.post-78684926003666713652011-02-07T23:49:02.234+00:002011-02-07T23:49:02.234+00:00Thanks Porky.

I've no immediate plans to develop the setting, for the simple reason that I don't intend to run <i>Shadowrun</i> at any point in the near future.<br /><br />But never say "never". As I thought back over what I'd come up with over twelve years ago, I surprised myself with how playable some of the ideas were, so who knows?thekelvingreenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01928260185408072124noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-232794383425434281.post-45805121397037795022011-02-07T20:55:44.125+00:002011-02-07T20:55:44.125+00:00What a cool mix.

Will you keep working on it?<br /><br />I wonder how many of the good ideas of youth sink with little trace. Exuberance is worth a lot when it comes to this kind of fiction, and the fiery teens have plenty.Porkyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00604351052444947490noreply@blogger.com
